MTV Breaks is BACK, and this time… we’re coming to you via podcast! 

That’s right, MTV Breaks is launching its very own podcast to help you break into the creative career of your dreams. Each episode of our MTV Breaks Podcast will feature talented creatives who’ve been bossing it in their fields (we’ll even throw a few celebs in the mix!) Listen in as our experts take a trip down memory lane to tell their unique stories of how they came to bag the roles they’re in now, and reveal their top tips on navigating their industries from the ground up.

This first series was recorded at MTV Music Week in Plymouth. During the evenings, MTV put on live gigs featuring amazing up-and-coming talent like Jvck James, as well as chart veterans like Ms Banks, Ghetts and Yungblud. During the day, MTV Breaks took to the stage, putting on a series of panel talks with a load of talented record label and talent managers, directors and presenters alongside top talent. And we recorded everything, so that no-one would miss out on accessing the best tips in the biz!

If you want to go into music, TV, makeup, film, or if you’re interested in some of the key issues facing employment in the creative industry today, this series is for you! Here is our episode breakdown:
